[Updated] Emergency services responded to a collision late this evening [Nov 20] on Reid Street in Hamilton which involved a car driver colliding with a tree on a sidewalk.

It appears that two people were injured, with Bermuda Fire and Rescue Service personnel attending to them initially, with an ambulance then arriving on scene. Details are limited at this time, however we will update as able. Update Nov 21, 2.02pm: A police spokesperson said, “Around 11:30pm on Sunday, November 20th police and first responders were dispatched to a reported collision on Reid Street in the City of Hamilton, near the junction with Court Street.

“Details remain limited at this time. However, initial information suggests that the driver and passenger of the car involved were injured and taken to hospital via ambulance for treatment. Inquiries continue and a further update will be provided in due course.”

This isn’t even at an angle, this person was literally driving on the sidewalk. And to think we didn’t already have a problem with people doing this on their auxiliary cycles trying to find parking spots.
